The VB WRX is the best new performance car bargain on sale right now. You can consistently find these for under retail, and they are handing out low interest rate finance deals like candy on Halloween. Why don't you have a base model WRX yet?
>>29140094I want to get one of these. Or maybe a Jetta GLI. They seem like the coolest sporty sedans you can get these days.
because i have like 3 grand to my name and no job and no credit
>>29140115From a performance perspective I don't know why you would get the GLI. It is FWD only, has less power, and the shifter is not as good as the WRX's. Definitely a nicer interior, and probably a slightly better daily. For me it's WRX all day though.
>>29140094Its not fast and the sound system sucks ass I hear.
>>29140118Yeah it's just kinda the sport/cool vs comfort/quality debate.
>>29140119>Sound system sucks assYeah, kinda desu. >Not fastThe one I got was listed at 32k. 271hp is not a ton, but the only car that has more than that for a similar price is the ecoboost stang, which is Auto only and way lamer than the WRX imo. The FA24DIT is very tunable though. You can reliably make 300 wheel with a Cobb access port and an off the shelf tune. No supporting mods needed. If you are OK with voiding your warranty, that is very good for the price. With an intake, exhaust, and some other bolt ons, you can make 350 wheel, and you're gapping a GT mustang at that hp. Probably about $7-8k to get it to that point.
>>29140094Pls assplayn 2 me (RWD V8 hoon enjoyer) how WRXs are funI live in Califucklia, do not need AWD. I just want to swing my ass around everywhere, do loud burnouts in tunnels, and practice various forms of niggerismBut I'm sick of 'mericlap shitboxes. Tempted by WRX, but I'm afraid I will be super bored and it will feel like a Corolla experienceHow do you vapebros have fun in them?
>>29140129Mine's a lot of fun to take out on backroads. You guys have a good selection of those in Cali, other than that if you can find some gravel country road to take it out on, it'd do good out there too. If you want to do what you're explaining and don't want something American, I'd get a BMW/Supra/Z though. You can get a used M240i for only a little bit more than a new WRX if you don't mind an autobox.
>>29140117 Selling drugs used to be a sure way of getting your first WRX
>>29140094i might get a wrx. waiting to see what happens with the TY85 transmission. confirmed for nihon but surely they bring it to NA right??
WRX will get me pussy?
>>29140129being honest with you WRXs arent as fun as RWD for that reasontry a gr86/brz, wrxs are for people that need a one-car solution (big trunk/backseats, 4wd for snow, decent power, decent handling) but the car wont excel at one specific thing. especially once you dont need the big trunk requirement. if you still need that, elantra n but that's fwd and then the experience is different (precise missile, go fast, have fun without wheelspin)
I drive a 2004 Jetta TDI manual. How would the VB WRX feel by comparison?
>>29140152yes, but not the kind you want
>>29140094>Why don't you have a base model WRX yet?because that car is yucky to hot chicks? It forever is tainted by that hoe ass "Baby Driver" movie. That's the stereotypical Zoomer wannabe gearhead car. If I am going to get a Japan car, why get that at $38,000USD when I can get an older Infiniti Q60 at around $22,000USD and actually mog you in that fag car with your girl in the passenger seat? Make it make sense.
>>29140168But I wanna be a Subie vapedawrg
>>29140168>Q60>0-60 in 5.4 seconds.Meanwhile, 21 years ago Subaru was doing 4.5 sec with a 2.5L.
>>29140168baby driver was great you fucking simp
>>29140094>performance>slower than a 3/4 ton diesel>somehow the truck is more balanced and has a more technologically advanced front suspensionhttps://youtu.be/l4rSJj3kWFg?t=250https://youtu.be/LZOdkd5RBBU?t=18
>>29140094Because it needs premium fuel and gets pickup truck tier MPG.
>>29140094Bump. Bought the '22 WRX Premium in January after getting stuck in the snow in my 21 Forte. I've now put almost $10k in mods into it (1.5k of which is a wear item being the ACT clutch+lightweight flywheel), dyno'd at 362whp which is about where I wanted to land anyway. But with the uneven length headers I can't hear the turbo anymore, so I'll probably upgrade that next. Fun machine, damn thing's so planted that going fast still feels slow.
>>29140124>The one I got was listed at 32kHow much out the door
>>29140094If the phrase "Always the bridesmaid, never the bride," were a car, it would be the modern WRX. It's a car you only buy as a compromise, never because it's what you want.
>>29140094Because they are ugly slow gay pikachu bullshits>performance carLol they are literally 4cylinderlet economy cars
>>29140540>incomprehensible niggerbabble
>>29140094>Why don't you have a base model WRX yet?I do but it's a VA.
I don't need four doors. If I did I would consider it.
>>29140575They just have too many dealbreakers like the ugly tablet touchscreen bullshit, the slow 4cylinderlet, and the gay epsThey’re also incredibly ugly
>>29140630In English, not AAVE please
>>29140094I don't care, it's ugly. Ugly ruins the car whether it's fun to drive or not
I'm gonna get one. What colour should I get? I'm leaning Galaxy Purple. But then again, maybe the classic blue is the way.
>>29140094WRX isn't a performance car.
